Todd says the moment he saw her, he knew she was the one, saying, "Now 20 years later, I get the chance to marry her so this is a fairy tale."

Two months ago, Todd bought an engagement ring and hid it in a pair of pants, but then Penton accidentally donated them to Goodwill.

As the story of their failed engagement spread, Maharaja's decided to step in and donate a ring.

Todd says, "the hard part is getting down on one knee, and not passing out."

Friday morning, Corey Todd was ready for take-two.

Kind of.

When we asked him what his first thoughts were waking up Friday morning, Todd responded, "Waking up? You mean trying to go to sleep. I haven't - I'm having heat flashes, nervous, stomach turning. I guess that's true love, I guess."

After Corey dropped her off at work at Health South, he went back home, picked up his son, snuck into the Human Resources door of the building, and gave her the surprise of a lifetime.

Penton says, "I always knew we wanted to marry each other, but to have that exact moment when he proposes, and not knowing, it just really hurt me that I probably never feel that way. And I did! Today!"
